A very funny, energetic, wonderfully engaging novel about where
we're from and where we'd like to get to... Danny Williams is
talented, upwardly mobile and has left his Northern Irish small
town roots well behind him. In his mid-twenties he lives in a
stylish London flat and has a job in a top London law firm.
However, one innocuous Wednesday night his old mucker from home,
Geordie Wilson, arrives at the door. On the run from a loyalist
militia, whose operational funds he has taken, he manages to bring
everything that Danny has been fleeing from right to his smart
London doorstep. Taking place over an intense and gripping five-day
period-set in both London and the fictional Irish town of
Ballyglass-Nick Laird has written an hilarious, touching and
ultimately redemptive novel about friendship.
